About FiRE

Filipinas for Rights and Empowerment (FiRE) is a mass-based women's organization serving New York City and its surrounding areas. We connect the Filipino diaspora to the women's struggle in the Philippines. By bringing woman-born and woman-identified people together, we challenge pervading stereotypes and create self-defined Filipina identities.

Along with Pinay sa Seattle and babae San Francisco, Filipinas for Rights and Empowerment is a proud member organization of the first and only overseas chapter of GABRIELA, a multi-sectoral womens organization which works toward the National Democratic Movement of the Philippines.
